[Today, Hakuno Kishinami looks tired. Not defeated, or depressed, or anything like that... just emotionally exhausted. The loss of Caster hurt her a lot more than she thought it would, and she had allowed herself a couple of days to mourn losing yet another person she's grown to like... but she can't keep doing this. She recovered after losing her dear Saber, so she can soldier on through this.

The loss of her other Servant did cause something good, though: Hakuno's finally getting off her butt and taking an active role in her own protection.]

I have a question... well. A question and a request, rather.

Is anyone good with swords? Not... fighting, really. [Though she probably still could use some help there...] I mean making them. Fixing them.

[She reaches off-screen for something and holds it - them - up: pieces of a sword. Broken, obvious, but still rather wickedly sharp-looking.]

A while ago, this showed up in my trunk. It was... a special sword I had received back home. I was wondering if someone could help me fix it, and strengthen it. It was only meant to be used once, but I'd really like to change that so I have something to protect myself with.

... I, uh... I don't really have anything I can offer for your services... but I'd still be willing to help out somehow to repay whoever can assist me.
